Re: SI - Top 255
What is the average turnover every year in the NFL? Players being let go or not renewed against their own desires + the players that retire on their own.
I read some years ago the average work life was around 4 and some change years which is one reason the NFLPA was working to get retirement benefits vested at 4 years.
How many are on the roster and then practice squad, though I am not sure practice squad gets a pension?
(I know I could look this up but my lunch is over.)

This is my very generic signature added to each post.

Re: SI - Top 255
ADG could be the second highest draft pick ever for App. Quite the rise from mid-season estimates.
Evans is going to make people wish they took him higher.

Re: SI - Top 255
At 79th he would be the third highest (behind Brian Quick and Dexter Jackson) and just edging out AE.
Quick and Jackson were both 2nd round picks (#33 and #58 Respectively). AE was 3rd round at #89.

Re: SI - Top 255
I see others mentioned but no ADG at 79 would not be 2nd highest. He would be 7th highest.
Quick- 33
Hackett- 35
Jackson- 58
Edwards- 59
Coakley- 65
Alexander-67
The expectation around the NFL is mid to late 3rd for ADG and 4th round for Evans. It will be interesting to see.

Re: SI - Top 255
NO - the worst in the whole business is F-ing Joe Lunardi - Joey Brackets in his basement --- I want his job filling out brackets all year and with absolutely no recourse for always being wrong - If any of us had all the info he has we could get within 1-2 picks - hell, 3/4 of the field is known before the season starts ---

Re: SI - Top 255
I really enjoy Lunardi's projections during the last month or so of the season. It's true that he's not doing anything magical, but it's a lot of info to summarize in one spot. At least he creates something informative, unlike the guys they pay $7 million to pretend like they're constantly outraged about everything.WVAPPeer wrote: ↑Wed Apr 22, 2020 2:56 pmNO - the worst in the whole business is F-ing Joe Lunardi - Joey Brackets in his basement --- I want his job filling out brackets all year and with absolutely no recourse for always being wrong - If any of us had all the info he has we could get within 1-2 picks - hell, 3/4 of the field is known before the season starts ---
Back to the draft, I don't read mocks much anymore, but my sense when I did was that they had a pretty good idea about the top 5-10, enough to make informed guesses about the rest of the first, and everything after that is throwing darts in the dark.
